Sir Edmund Andros
Sir Edmund Andros was the autocratic governor of New York. He was also the Royal governor of the Dominion of New England.
The major event that resulted in the destruction of the Dominion of New England was the Glorious Revolution of 1688 in England. This political upheaval led to the overthrow of King James II and the installation of William and Mary as co-monarchs. In the colonies, news of this revolution inspired resistance against the Dominion's unpopular governor, Sir Edmund Andros, ultimately leading to his arrest and the dissolution of the Dominion in 1689. As a result, the individual New England colonies were reestablished with greater autonomy.
After the Glorious Revolution of 1688, Sir Edmund Andros, the former governor of the Dominion of New England, was arrested and imprisoned for his role in the unpopular dominion. He was eventually sent back to England in 1692. Although he faced criticism for his authoritarian rule, he later returned to public life and served as the governor of Virginia from 1692 to 1698.
